Excel Macros not working properly

Hi,
We are using Webfocus 7.14. All our reports will be generated in EXL2K format. We are trying to apply Macros as follows in the Fex code.
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL2K TEMPLATE template_file_name SHEETNUMBER 1

where template_file_name = Name of the .mht file stored in the 'Others' folder.

When I try to run the report from Developer Studio, Webfocus is applying the Macros properly and the 'Enable/Disable Macros dialog box' is getting displayed.

But when i try scheduling thro ReportCaster and view from the Library Content link, the underlying Macro is not getting applied.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

EXL2K TEMPLATE


According to the documentation you need to change the mime type on the web server to be
ascii/application data instead of binary for the .xls extension if you are sending the reports to the report library
